Risk Management

Autor Paul Hopkin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 3 mai 2013

Risk management is not just a topic for risk professionals. Managers, business owners and directors at all levels must be equipped with an understanding of risk and the tools and processes required to assess and manage it successfully.

Risk Management offers a practical and structured approach while avoiding jargon, theory and many of the complex issues that preoccupy risk management practitioners but have little relevance for non-specialists. Risk professional Paul Hopkin covers: the nature of risk; the relevance of risk management to the business model; essential elements of the risk management process; different approaches to risk assessment; strategy, tactics, operations and compliance requirements; how to build a risk-aware culture; and the importance of risk governance.

With online templates that allow managers to adopt an approach that is proportionate to the size, nature and complexity of their organization, this is a straightforward and engaging guide to the practice and the benefits of good risk management.

Recenzii

"Paul has brought together some very useful and practical risk management guidance, for business leaders and managers of small and medium sized companies, to enhance and protect business performance over the long term. It is a treasure trove of ideas and concepts." John Ludlow, SVP Global Risk Management IHG "Paul Hopkin brings decades of experience in the application of the key principles and the practice of risk management... All managers with operational responsibilities, not just risk managers, will find a great deal of useful material in this book. Other senior managers, even Board members, will also find much to learn in the chapters covering risk communication and risk governance." Alan Punter, Visiting Professor in Risk Financing, Cass Business School "Well structured, with checklists, text boxes, diagrams, further reading references and lots of examples, this book is a joy to read, either cover-to-cover or dipping into it as an introduction to the subject." Steve Fowler, Chief Executive of the Institute of Risk Management
